Sam,
you may find that you need to issue "archive log stop" and "archive log start"
to force the database to start archiving again.
Once it's failed to archive a log it seems to lose heart and give up until you
nudge it. Ironically the ARCHIVER will keep writing to the alert log to say that
it's still trying. But it isn't. No doubt it's a feature.
I've seen this on AIX, HP, Solaris, you name it.

Regards,
Mike Hately

This happened to me today: Solaris 5.8
we have a large data load exercise going on and the archive log directory
filled - database stopped of course.
but after I had moved all the archive logs to another location the system
still hung - I     tried manual switching of log file ,still hung.
I had to stop and start instance - I was surprised. did I miss something ?
